2 TEMPUR MATERIAL WHY DOES TEMPUR MAKE A DIFFERENCE? PRESSURE POINTS ON A PATIENT (70KG) PLACED ON A TEMPUR MATTRESS PU-COVER All products are covered with a waterproof and air permeable PU-cover. The PU-cover is welded to avoid leakage. It is easy to remove, can be machine washed (95 C) and is easy to clean, disinfect and sterilise using cleaning agents commonly used in hospitals. ADVANTAGES OF THE PU-COVER: Stretchable Easy maintenance Easy cleaning High level of hygiene Quality assured Risk profile up to high risk Washable in 95 C Vapour permeable Antibacterial treated mm Hg Pressure * 8,00 4,50 4,50 2,25 Head Chest Shoulder blade Collarbone 16,50 Heel 70 kg (in mm Hg) * Basis Institut/TÜV Product Service GmbH, Munich, Germany The visco-elastic and thermo active properties ensures optimal pressure relief. Patients that are placed on the TEMPUR Mattress mould to the material due to their body weight and temperature. The pressure is absorbed by the mattress and spread evenly across the entire surface, reducing the risk of pressure ulcers. All Products with a PU-Cover comply to WHAT IS TEMPUR? The TEMPUR Material is a visco-elastic, temperature sensitive open cell material which has unique pressure relieving qualities. Unlike ordinary polyurethane which features irregular cell shapes that simply compress under weight and degenerate over a short period of time, the TEMPUR Pressure Relieving Material is composed of billions of visco-elastic spherical shaped, open cells. The cells respond to body temperature and weight then shift and reorganise their position to mould to the exact contours of the patient s body. The TEMPUR Pressure Relieving Material becomes softer in warmer areas and remains firmer in cooler areas, where less body contact is being made. TEMPUR has a density of kg/m 3. The open cell structure allows air to circulate. TEMPUR is an open cell viscoelastic, temperature sensitive material that conforms to the exact contours of the body. 2 3

The Operating Positioning Kit has been designed to stabilise the patient in a variety of positions even when lying on the side and it offers optimum pressure relief. OPERATING TABLE PADS OPERATING POSITIONING KIT (THREE PARTS) The Operating Positioning Kit can prevent the compression of veins, nerves in shoulders, and arms.
